Wow. So far behind here. Ton of stuff to catch up on, starting here...
Ended up sneaking outta class early so I could attend the Penguins "Town Hall Meeting" for season ticket holders at Mellon last night. About 4,000 of us showed up to hear CEO Ken Sawyer and Prez Dave Morehouse talk about the details of the new arena and other organizational developments. GM Ray Shero was on hand to talk player personnel, and Steigy MC'd a Q&A with a few players...including Sid, Colby, Staal, Fleury, Whitney.
Quote of the night, when a young fan asked the question, "Why did you decide to become a Goalie?", Marc-Andre Fleury responded in deep French Canadian accent:
"Because I suck to score goals."
Can't express how much I love this team. While it's nice to have a talented young team to root for, it's the personalities of this group of players that makes them downright wholesome. These are just plain old Good Guys. They're the Anti-Barrasso's. And their passion is infectious. It's an exciting times to be a Pens fan. By the end of the night, I was near tear thinking about the future of this team.
What do they say? Anything not worth being passionate about...is not worth doing. Or something like that.
